My DVD player says "Bad Disk" on every DVD and CD I have. Try it again and if it is still not playing properly take the disc out and try it in another player or reader. Reinsert the disc into the player and press "Play" to see if cleaning the disc fixes the "NO DISC" error. Make sure the discs you're using fit the correct format specified by your DVD player.

The other pin "that is guided by the grooves underneath the cd tray" I noticed. Log in or register to post comments no prob. It is random, but I am not ready to toss something that is sick but not dead yet. DVD laser lens cleaning discs can be purchased at most electronics retailers or online.

The reality is that these and just about all other error messages you may get are essentially meaningless and are telling you nothing. also clean the laser eye periodically as it will start to become blind over time(recomended every 8 hrs.

I've pulled it appart, whiped the laser,forced the loading tray in and out manualy,turned the unit on the side, bashed it ,mildly,span the discs with my finger...nothing worked, untill I stuck The player was bought in late May or early June this year. I have no idea what one in particular is called, but it sits above the disc and acts like a friction plate or clutch. This feature is not available right now.

If there is light marking or dirt then use a very soft cloth to wipe the disc clean using straight strokes beginning at the center and going out to the edge.
